Rhino's Energy Drink GMC 3500 with Morgan Truck Body
Atlas Distributors Clarks Summit, PA GMC Rhino's Energy Drink truck equipped with an HTS-10T Tilt Mount Ultra-Rack Hand Truck Sentry System in November 2007
HTS Systems' patented Hand Truck Sentry System prevents delivery drivers from leaving their hand trucks behind, saves fuel and labor by eliminating retrieval time, reduces route time, worker injuries, highway accidents and bacterial cross-contamination. The HTS also increases cargo space while reducing hand truck damage and theft, product damage, insurance claims and refrigeration temperature loss. It quickly pays for itself, while it protects your business from liability and saves $$$ thousands per vehicle!
The HTS Ultra-Rack saves a route driver a minute or more per delivery stop, that's about 2.5 hours per week! It simple; save a minute per stop X 30 stops per day = 600 mins. per month or 120 hours per year X $10 per hour = $1,200 dollars in annual savings! For one delivery vehicle over a 4 year time period = $4,800 dollars in labor + $400 in fuel savings + $300 in hand truck replacements = $5,500 dollars! Include additional payload cargo area, less freight claims damage, less driver injuries, reduced liability and insurance costs = $2,000 per year or about $8,000 dollars in a four year time period! Prevent a workmen's compensation injury claim or an expensive liability lawsuit and well... you get the point! The HTS Ultra-Rack Hand Truck Sentry System is a safer, faster, easier and one-handed method; a patented solution that pays for itself over and over. What other investment could you possibly make in your company and truck fleet that will give you that large of a return and that type of protection? Any driver who rushes back (off-route) in a hurry to retrieve their forgotten hand truck is no longer a safe driver, they instantly become a liability! The ancient hand truck carrier racks of the past eventually fail and it usually occurs when the delivery truck is traveling. Often these types of failures result in catastrophic highway accidents, severe injuries and costly lawsuits and legal settlements.
On average, it takes approximately 0.5 to 1.5 (½ - 1½) minutes to unload and reload a hand truck aboard a commercial route truck, depending on the truck body type, door locks, deck height, securing method, cargo space, driver fitness and the hand truck weight and model. Unlocking padlocks, unlocking and reopening doors, physical lifting and climbing and moving cargo to access is valuable time! Upon completing the delivery; the driver will loose additional time to reopen the cargo area to safely store hand truck aboard the vehicle. Many drivers toss their hand trucks on top of fragile products causing claims damage. When drivers must back track off route to retrieve a forgotten hand truck it usually takes about 20-30 minutes round trip. Hand truck retrievals can cost delivery companies thousands in fuel and labor! The average route driver will forget their hand truck 4-6 times per year. Most supervisors only hear about it once or twice, or when the hand truck is lost or stolen! Unloading and reloading the hand truck aboard vehicles with a hasp bar or a rubber strap hand truck carrier frame requires additional time and the use of both hands. When a driver works off the back of the truck and also docks to warehouse doors it is very common for him to remove the hand truck from vehicle to the loading dock area so that a pallet jack or forklift can enter. Often times the driver forgets to reload the hand truck aboard the cargo area before departure, leaving it miles behind!
